Americans hail from many different backgrounds? but we are united by our freedoms. our democratic government. and our language. It goes without saying that the StarSpangled Banner should be sung in English. This Spanishlanguage anthem is nothing but a cynical attempt to divide our country during the debate on this most vigorous and divisive issue of immigration and illegal immigration. It will not distract from the critical tasks at hand. securing our borders. I am committed to enforcing our immigration laws and effectively reforming our immigration system without providing amnesty. and I believe that all of our colleagues should join in cosponsoring the legislation offered by our colleague from Kansas H. Res. 793. which will underscore the fact that the Star Spangled Banner should be sung in English.
